I am scared to do this, but I shouldn’t be. It is the truth.

If you believe in God and his word, then you know that, as our creator, he knows what is best for us. His way is the way of light and when we disobey, or sin, we walk in darkness - the way of death and eternal destruction.

Sexual activity outside of marriage (between a man and a woman) is sinful. The Bible calls it fornication or immorality. If you indulge in it, accept it, think its okay, think its funny, you are sinning. There is an element on this forum that seems to promote conservative values on the one hand, but on the other hand does a lot of “boys will be boys - wink wink nudge nudge” sexual promiscuity promotion on the other hand.

As a Christian, I know I am a sinner too. I certainly don’t think I am better than anybody else. When I sin, however, I am not proud of it, nor do I make jokes about it - I try to not do it again. It’s hard.

The good news is God’s mercy - the atoning blood of our savior on the cross. But we must not willfully trample in that blood with our self-indulgence.

Here’s a quote from Tim Keller: “If you were a hundred times worse than you are, your sins would be no match for his mercy.”

Excellent post.

What the sexual revolution has shown us, by letting us see all the problems that unrestrained sexual expression brings about (homosexuality, abortion, abused children, rape etc etc etc) is that God’s way is the only right way.

We do need to return to a Christian sexual morality for everyone.

Amen.

One man, one women, children. Mental and sexual peace.

Proud of your public stand for Jesus.
